Ponte di Rialto: The Bridge That Sold Space
- The Engine Room: Before Venice was a museum, it was a corporation, and its true capital was the Rialto. This walk reads the postcard city as a business, tracing the market, the money, and the merchant halls that paid for the palaces.
- The Long Light: A slow reading of Dorsoduro, the quiet southern back of Venice, as a lesson in light on water: from a plague-born white dome and a turning golden Fortune to the sunlit Zattere, the paintings, the gondola boatyard, and a campo that simply lives.
